golf-rx.FacebookLogoBoutique prescription lenscrafter Sports Optical Inc. has announced the launch of its new golf division, Golf Rx.

Devoted specifically to golf and leveraging its more than 20 years of experience as a leader and innovator in the prescription sport optics industry, Golf Rx claims to be the only company in the world to offer golfers fully-custom and handcrafted prescription sunglasses made specifically for their needs on the course.

“We’ve been making glasses for golfers for years but we’re excited to finally bring all of our expertise to the golf world in one centralized, focused location,” says Bret Hunter, CEO and Master Lenscrafter of Sports Optical. “We feel like with Golf Rx we’re raising the industry standard for high-quality prescription golf sunglasses.”

Golf Rx is online at www.prescriptiongolfglasses.com Like its parent company Sports Optical, they will consult with each customer on an individual basis, via personal visit, phone or email to determine the best frame fit with regards to optics, coverage and style.

This consultation will also include a discussion of the prescription lens options and combinations that will best suit their needs on the course. Golf Rx lenses are available in single-vision, lined-bifocal and progressive styles, with tinted, polarized and transition options. Mirrors and other lens applications are also available. Each lens is fully-custom and crafted in-house at the Sports Optical Inc. laboratory.

Frame options begin at $109 and lenses start at $209. As prescription eyewear is a medical device, Golf Rx can be submitted as an out-of-network claim through optical insurance and accepts Flexible Spending and Health Savings Accounts. Golf Rx ships around the US, the UK and the world. Per request, they’re also able to visit clubs for group fittings and orders.

Golf Rx is a division of Sports Optical, an independent prescription lenscrafter in Denver, CO with more than twenty years experience as a leader and innovator in the prescription sport optics industry.
